SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Authority for This Rulemaking The FAA’s authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the United States Code. Subtitle I, Section 106, describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the agency’s authority. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority described in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the use of the airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that authority as it modifies and removes Class E airspace to support IFR operations at Mammoth Yosemite Airport, Mammoth Lakes, CA. History The FAA published a notice of proposed rulemaking for Docket No. FAA–2023–1758 in the Federal Register (88 FR 88546; December 22, 2023) for the removal and modification of Class E airspace at Mammoth Yosemite Airport, Mammoth Lakes, CA. Interested parties were invited to participate in this rulemaking effort by submitting written comments on the proposal to the FAA. No comments were received. Differences From the NPRM The legal description of the Class E airspace designated as a surface area PO 00000 Frm 00007 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 47073 within the NPRM included the following language: ‘‘This Class E airspace area is effective during the specific dates and times established in advance by a Notice to Air Missions. The effective date and time will thereafter be continuously published in the Chart Supplement.’’ The FAA subsequently determined that the Class E airspace at Mammoth Yosemite Airport is effective 24 hours a day. Accordingly, the final rule does not include this language. Incorporation by Reference Class E2 and E5 airspace area designations are published in paragraphs 6002 and 6005, respectively, of FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1 on an annual basis. This document amends the current version of that order, FAA Order JO 7400.11H, dated August 11, 2023, and effective September 15, 2023. FAA Order JO 7400.11H is publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document. These amendments will be published in the next update to FAA Order JO 7400.11. FAA Order JO 7400.11H lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic service routes, and reporting points. The Rule This action amends 14 CFR part 71 by modifying the Class E airspace designated as surface area, modifying the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface, and removing the Class E airspace extending upward from 1,200 feet above the surface at Mammoth Yosemite Airport, Mammoth Lakes, CA. The Class E surface area extension east of the airport centered on the 099° bearing is recentered to the airport’s 096° bearing. Additionally, the width is reduced from 1.8 miles to 1 mile either side of the bearing, and the extension length is reduced from 5.6 miles to 4.6 miles east of the airport. This will better contain arriving IFR operations between the surface and 1,000 feet above the surface while executing the Area Navigation (RNAV) (Global Positioning System [GPS]) Runway (RWY) 27 approach. The Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface at the airport is extended eastward to include that airspace within 2.6 miles either side of the airport’s 091° bearing extending from the 6.6-mile radius to 13.1 miles east of the airport. This will contain arriving IFR operations below 1,500 feet above the surface while E:\FR\FM\31MYR1.SGM 31MYR1
